Chapter 609: Chapter 581: Finally Entering the Nascent Soul Realm

I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence.

Or perhaps when the Celestial Dharma Bearer was creating the new method, he indeed referenced and imitated the scene of the world’s origin.

Anyway, to solve the problem of cultivators having no spiritual roots and being unable to practice cultivation, a creation was made which utilizes negative emotions from the human body to forcefully absorb energy from heaven and earth, and it is also referred to as the “Root of Heaven and Earth”.

Although they share the same name, the two are clearly incomparable.

If the [Root of Heaven and Earth] that represents the beginning of creation is considered sacred and solemn.

Then the “Root of Heaven and Earth” that seizes heaven and earth, making it possible for everyone to cultivate, seems somewhat evil.

This might be evident from the outer form “it” exhibits.

Hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands of wriggling tentacles, those are the roots of the Root of Heaven and Earth.

At this moment, they’re extending as if they have birthed self-consciousness, drawing closer to the Five Elements Cave Heaven.

They’re automatically seeking the most suitable place to take root and invade.

The newly-born Five Elements Cave Heaven, seems to have an ominous premonition of its own crisis.

The Cave Heaven trembles, various radiance unleashed, attempting to repel these invasive “foreign bodies”.

However…

It’s useless.

The protective effect from the Cave Heaven’s radiance is almost negligible to them.

They only lost an insignificant part.

The remaining black roots, like entering an uninhabited region, advanced without hindrance.

Like numerous thin needles, they silently pierced into the Cave Heaven one after another.

The Cave Heaven roared.

An inexplicable sound emanated from inside, like a cry of pain.

Yet it couldn’t stop the ceaseless roots from wrapping around, binding it tighter and tighter.

The radiance dissipated, darkness descended.

Li Fan, the initiator, who had been watching the scene of the Cave Heaven being devoured the whole time, felt a hint of chill involuntarily arising in his heart at this point.

“The Tianzun New Method, it’s indeed strange.”

“It does not seem right.”

He secretly muttered in his heart.

However, Li Fan, after all, is not the type to be overly sensitive.

No matter how evil the new method seemed, it is the only way he could practice cultivation right now.

Brushing aside the the distracting thoughts in his mind, Li Fan stared at the Cave Heaven being encompassed by the wriggling black roots.

The endless roots were like his own tentacles, conveying the real situation of the Cave Heaven to Li Fan’s consciousness.

The strength was being devoured, and the struggling force was getting weaker.

And from the thousands of tentacles, an incredibly strange energy was being transmitted.

It was an energy of life that was several times more refined than what Li Fan had sensed from the human body’s Mi Chang while practicing “The Creation and Transformation Furnace Technique”.

Bursting with vitality, it was drawn from the Cave Heaven and continuously infused into Li Fan’s body.

Li Fan only absorbed a minuscule part of it, yet a feeling welled up in his heart.

With this exceptionally pure vitality, even if he was sliced into pieces, as long as some part of his tissue remained, he could use it to recreate a whole new body.

“Blood Rebirth, Immortal and Unkillable…”

The divine technique rumored in ancient times, which could only be mastered by great cultivators, was now nearly realized through this ingenious method.

“Law Transmission…”

Li Fan couldn’t help but sigh in his heart again.

Next, seeing that the timing was right, he finally made his move and made the final step in sealing his Jindan.

His body, which was only half left, completely melted.

Transformed into a dark and thick fluid, it entered the Five Elements Cave Heaven through the various roots.

In Li Fan’s perception, he seemed to have divided into thousands, and thousands have changed into billions.

Divided into countless existences, it felt like he was still a whole entity.

With a unified goal, that is to seize the nest, and completely take the Five Elements Cave Heaven for himself.

This is a very peculiar experience.

The “Cave Heaven”, which was originally a higher level compared to a human body, has now become a form of life that exists on equal terms.

The originally elusive “heaven and earth” have now seemingly turned into tangible entities that can be attacked.

With Li Fan’s continued invasion.

The Cave Heaven’s struggles grew weaker, until they were almost imperceptible.

—————–

Sky-spirit State.

Outside the Five Elements Void.

“Hmm? Was there just a sound?” A Golden Core Cultivator who was on guard duty suddenly looked up and said while staring at the big, dark hole in the sky.

“Lao Sun, I think you’re hallucinating again.” A cultivator next to him, who had a leisurely look on his face, said with a derisive laugh.

“I’ve warned you before, ask for some time off and rest. After so long at war and seeing so many dead people, it’s a blessing that you’re not mad. Yet you volunteered to be a guard duty…”

Lao Sun ignored his companion’s mockery and just stared intently at the black void, his face serious, lost in his thoughts.

After hesitating for a while, he flew to the edge of the void to investigate carefully.

“Crazy, always suspicious, must have gone mad!” The cultivator nearby muttered in a contemptuous undertone.

He stretched lazily, looking up to see Lao Sun with a look of anticipation for some amusement.

As expected, after a long inspection, there was no sign of anything unusual.

Eventually, he could only return to the ground dejectedly.

“See, I told you, it was all your hallucination.” The cultivator teased as he saw the situation.

“This godforsaken place, not even a bird would come to poop here! Why would there be any enemies? I don’t know what the higher-ups are thinking, insisting on leaving a team of people here on guard.”

“They’re having a good time now, able to go back and enjoy themselves. We’re stuck here suffering! Damn…”

Seeing Lao Sun didn’t respond, the complaining cultivator could only shift his target and kept on grumbling.

Lao Sun seemed to be used to it and ignored him.

He just occasionally looked up at the sky, his eyebrows creased in worry.

“Hmm? This Cultivator surnamed Sun seems to have a keen sense of awareness, he almost detected me.”

“Interesting.”

In the sky above, Li Fan, who had concealed his figure, looked at Lao Sun and a trace of surprise flashed in his heart.

At the moment when Five Elements Cave Heaven descended into the Sky-spirit State’s void, he swallowed the Cave Heaven without any peril and successfully advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, before he had the chance to examine his changes, he was almost detected by Lao Sun down below.

Fortunately, Li Fan reacted quickly and promptly hid his figure.

Although his cultivation is now a realm higher than them and can easily subdue them, the war is about to end and the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals is in a very sensitive situation.

If something happened here, it may cause another stir.

It’s better to keep a low profile and make a fortune.

Li Fan shook his head, memorized Lao Sun’s appearance and intended to leave.

However, he heard another conversation from below.

“Lao Sun, did you hear? Recently, Zhang Debiao seems to have struck it rich.”

“Isn’t he responsible for the clean-up work after the war?”

“All the good stuff from the corpses scattered all over the battlefield of Sky-spirit State were taken by him alone!”
